Xdell -thanks so much for inquiring--I have been having a bit of back troubles lately -and not much energy due to lack of sleep from this--but I am finally getting somewhat better--all the best to you my friend!!

lilith --always great to see a new comment from a new "face" !!sorry it took so long to get to these --and i agree --haha at that rate most of us would be tens of thousands of "years" old!!thanks all of you for stopping by!!

Hey friend, just dropping by to say hello, and at the same time trying not to sound like I'm nagging or poking you with a stick or stalking you, or anything that would require words upon countless words of disclaiming information.

Chris and Xdell --thanks so very much for your concern about me !!!!!!!!!I hope to be back to "normal" soon (whatever that is for me haha) and in better contact with people -my back has just not been cooperating lately but it WILL get better!!!!!!!!best to the both of you as always and thanks so much for stopping by!!!!!

Geez. That back has still got you, huh? I was thinking, it might be fun to do a Terrance McKenna and experience the blogosphere under the state-altering influence of pain-killers. That would give us a chance to probe the depths of your unconscious.

xdell, benji, foam, middle ditch (and anyone else:-) thanks so very much for your kind and awesome comments !!!!!!!!!!!!!i hope to be around to your blogs very soon --cant promise much yet --but hopefully can start a little here and there really out of the habit with everything now --typing is way hard hope all of you are doing fantastic!!!!!!!!!
